As a result of historic voter turnout, anti-democracy state lawmakers across the nation have rushed to enact restrictive voting laws that hinder our access to the ballot box.

Cependant, we have the power to fight those restrictions and protect our democracy by passing the For the People Act (H.R. 1/ S. 1), a package of voting rights reform and anti-corruption legislation aimed to restore faith in our government and trust in our electoral system. 

Despite opposition from Senate Republicans who united in opposing the landmark legislation, which failed to advance in the Senate, the For the People Act has received bipartisan support from everyday Americans including from business owners, veterans and faith leaders.  We are standing together to urge our leaders to continue fighting for a future where our voices are not silenced by the wealthy and powerful.

Over the past week, hundreds of small business and community leaders from Georgia, Maine, and Alaska have joined Common Cause to urge their senators to do everything possible to make the For the People Act law, including fixing the filibuster.
